TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to sea water desalination circulating technical field more specifically, it is a kind of multistage sea water desalination circulating device. BACKGROUND
[0002] About 97% of the world's water resources are seawater, while only about 2.5% of fresh water resources are available for direct human use. With the acceleration of population growth, industrialization and urbanization, the demand for fresh water is rising, and seawater desalination has become an effective way to open up new water sources and alleviate the fresh water crisis. Seawater desalination is a process that uses physical, chemical or biological methods to remove salt and other impurities from seawater to obtain fresh water that can be used by humans. This technology is crucial to alleviating the global water shortage problem, especially in coastal arid areas, and is particularly significant. Traditional seawater desalination methods mainly include distillation and reverse osmosis. Among them, the distillation method is to pass the heated seawater through multiple pressure reduction evaporation chambers in turn. The seawater rapidly depressurizes and evaporates in the evaporation chamber to produce water vapor. The water vapor is condensed to become fresh water. The seawater that has not evaporated enters the next evaporation chamber for continuous evaporation, forming a cycle.
[0003] For example, the prior art with publication number CN217297356U discloses a seawater desalination device. The utility model utilizes an evaporator to achieve efficient photo-thermal conversion and effectively filter impurities and bacteria in seawater. With the condenser arranged between adjacent evaporators, the efficiency of condensing steam is improved, the water production is increased, and the energy loss is reduced. The condenser provides protection for the internal structure of the device and also plays a role in focusing sunlight in multiple directions, improving energy utilization.

Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by the person skilled in the art without creative labor belong to the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0024] Next, an inlet pipe 7 is fixedly installed through the bottom of each electrodialysis tank 2, and a freshwater drain pipe 8 and a concentrated water drain pipe 9 are provided above each electrodialysis tank 2.

[0025] In actual use, seawater flows through the rightmost side of support 1 ( Figure 2 Multiple inlets (one inlet per group between cation exchange membrane 3 and anion exchange membrane 4) on the rightmost inlet pipe 7 are fed into the electrodialysis tank 2. As seawater fills the electrodialysis tank 2 from bottom to top, the cathode 10 and anode 11 on the front and rear sides of the electrodialysis tank 2 generate a direct current electric field. Under the influence of this field, cations in the seawater pass through the cation exchange membrane 3 towards the cathode, and anions pass through the anion exchange membrane 4 towards the anode. The ion concentration in the seawater between the cation exchange membrane 3 and the silver ion exchange membrane 4 decreases, gradually becoming freshwater, while the ion concentration on both sides of the cation exchange membrane 3 and the silver ion exchange membrane 4 gradually increases, gradually becoming concentrated water (concentrated brine).
